Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

4 Can I use my D-Link Broadband Router to share my Internet connection provided by AOL DSL Plus?

In most cases yes. AOL DSL+ may use PPPoE for authentication bypassing the client software. If this is the case, then our routers will work with this service. Please contact AOL if you are not sure.

To set up your router:

Step 1: Log into the web-based configuration (192.168.0.1) and configure the WAN side to use PPPoE.

Step 2: Enter your screen name followed by @aol.com for the user name. Enter your AOL password in the password box.

Step 3: You will have to set the MTU to 1400. AOL DSL does not allow for anything higher than 1400.

Step 4: Apply settings.

Step 5: Recycle the power to the modem for 1 minute and then recycle power to the router. Allow 1 to 2 minutes to connect.

If you connect to the Internet with a different internet service provider and want to use the AOL software, you can do that without configuring the router’s firewall settings. You need to configure the AOL software to connect using TCP/IP.

Go to http://www.aol.com for more specific configuration information of their software.

5 How do I open ports on my router?

To allow traffic from the internet to enter your local network, you will need to open up ports or the router will block the request.

Step 1: Open your web browser and enter the IP Address of your D-Link router (192.168.0.1). Enter username (admin) and your password (blank by default).

Step 2: Click on Advanced on top and then click Virtual Server on the left side.
